Safe Rev limit for an LQ4? I posted this in the tuning board with no replys, Going back to the tuner tomorrow so Im looking for some replys before then.
My set up is a 01 Z28 A4 with an LQ4 with ASA cam, 226/236 .525 lift 110LSA. Right now the rev limit is set at 6200.
Should I keep it at 6200 or would it be ok to raise it alittle?
Thanks

If it's a stock long block I wouldn't go above 6200. The balancing at the factory is not exactly perfect not to mention the rotating assembly uses bolts that I wouldn't trust beyond 6200. I made an assumption you were talking about a built motor.

my limit is 7000 on my LQ4... but I never go that high. I usually shift around 6200 or so I'd say. Anything around 7000 is asking for trouble IMO and not really needed unless your cam calls for it...
